About

Combe Down is situated on a limestone plateau south of Bath city centre. The area is primarily residential, with streets of Georgian and Victorian stone houses that reflect the wider architectural heritage of the city. Its history is deeply connected to the stone quarrying industry, which supplied the distinctive Bath stone for many local buildings. The underlying landscape is marked by extensive, now stable, mine workings from this period.

The ward features large areas of green space, including the National Trust's Combe Down and Bathampton Down woods. These provide walking routes with views over the city. A notable community facility is the modern Combe Down Football Club pavilion. Local shops and services are concentrated along Bradford Road and Combe Road, serving the immediate neighbourhood.
